Food prep, cubed.
It’s totally OK to have—ahem—’grate’ expectations when it comes to this versatile kitchen tool. Made from top-notch stainless steel, its edges stay razor-sharp for hard cheeses, onions, citrus, ginger (all the usual suspects, really). Unlike your average grater, it’s also got a built-in catch-all with measuring lines and a window so you can see how much goodness you’ve got inside. Oh and, safety first: It’s bringing along a one-size-fits-all safety glove made from cut-resistant fibers so you can go to town without fretting about nicks or scrapes. When you’re through with meal prep, just toss it right in the wash. Easy.

Too Many Cooks: What's your Favorite Kitchen Gadget?
You'll be hearing from the staff at FOOD52 every week in Too Many Cooks, our group column in which we pool our answers to questions about food, cooking, life, and more. The New York Times Dining section ran a piece this week about those kitchen gadgets that you buy thinking they'll make your life easier -- oyster knife, bread machine, milk frother -- but that end up gathering dust in a cabinet.But sometimes more is more, even if those pickle tongs take up too much space in your cutlery drawer. Here are our favorite kitchen utensils -- the ones we won't give up in favor of a simpler life. It's funny how so many of our answers are about tools that are just so "satisfying" to use!Click through for pitters, slicers, and choppers galore.
